A new analysis shows that infectious bacteria exposed to the antibiotic albicidin rapidly develop up to a 1,000-fold increase in resistance via a gene amplification mechanism. A new analysis shows ...

The discovery of a new mechanism of resistance to common antibiotics could pave the way for improved treatments for harmful ...

Scientists make significant discovery on bacteria’s resistance to common antibiotics - Researchers hope that findings can help them treat infections more effectively ...

Two newly discovered mechanisms in bacteria have been identified that can contribute to the development of antibiotic resistance. Changing the number of copies of resistance genes in bacteria ...

Superbugs, bacteria that are immune to multiple antibiotics, pose a great challenge to modern medicine. Researchers from the B CUBE—Center for Molecular Bioengineering at TUD Dresden University of ...

Scientists at the University of Edinburgh have identified new drug targets within bacterial cells that could help overcome ...

As more and more bacteria develop resistance to the drugs designed to kill them, a new study has found that even a relatively new antibiotic isn’t immune. Researchers have uncovered a gene ...

A team of researchers at Baylor College of Medicine is gaining ground in their search for solutions to the global problem of bacterial antibiotic resistance, which was responsible for nearly 1.3 ...

Scientists at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital report a proof-of-concept study showing how antibiotic-resistant proteins ...
